Well, everything we do to avoid spending what we shouldn't is the right thing to do. My strategy works well for me, but there are people Who use other techniques that suit their rhythm or personality. You have to know yourself well to be able to Figure out Which strategy best suits you. The idea will always be not to spend more than normal , that's what you have to do.
For me, it's enough to have Discipline and the Balance I'm willing to lose, because I leave open the option of giving free rein to my thoughts.
As you have said, we should be able to bet with money that we can afford, otherwise it is considered lost with the money we deposit. Limits which are an important thing in gambling are one of the things that are difficult to do, for those who gamble with the aim of making money they have problems with things like this, even when they lose they don't care about it and instead deposit money again to pursue victory.
I initially did not have the discipline to gamble, but after I experienced something that I thought was big enough to make me aware and finally made me have to stick to the discipline in gambling so that unwanted things don't happen.
